Mixing of orotron oscillations with local-oscillator harmonics on an electron detector
Abstract
Mixing of orotron oscillations in the 100-220 GHz range with second and third local-oscillator (LO) harmonics on an electron detector was achieved. The interaction of the LO harmonics with the electron beam was realized by means of an additional periodic structure cut into the flat mirror of the orotron. The mixing signal was registered according to beats of the collector current, and reached 100-200 mV at a load of 10 k-ohms.
